Commune Daily With God, Part 1 (TPMD #181)

Our prayer motivator quote today is from Chuck Smith. He said: "The most important thing a born again Christian can do is to pray." 

 

Our prayer motivator devotional today is part 1 of a new series titled "COMMUNE DAILY WITH GOD IN PRAYER" from Dr. Curtis Hutson. Dr. Curtis Hutson said... 

 

The so-called "Lord's Prayer" implies daily communion with God. "Give us this day our daily bread". It seems that prayer would have to be prayed again tomorrow and the next day and the next and so on. If God intended that we pray only once a week, the passage should read, "Give us this day our 'weekly' bread." Luke 18:1 says, "...men ought always to pray, and not to faint." 1 Thessalonians 5:17 says we are to "Pray without ceasing." And Psalm 5:3 says, "My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up." 

 

There are many reasons why believers should commune daily with God in prayer. In the first place, it's God's appointed way for us to obtain things. Matthew 7:7 says, "Ask, and it shall be given you...." And James 4:2 tells us, "...ye have not because ye ask not." You would be surprised what you can get from God by simply asking. And don't be afraid to ask too much.
